Mid-winter thaw

2 mins read

With winter here, Franklin County’s many talented photographers are here to bring readers the best shots of nature and those who live in it. The basis for the Sunday collections goes back to March 2011, when author and photographer Jane Naliboff of Chesterville began sending a few pictures each week. Other photographers have since joined the effort, creating one of the Bulldog’s most widely appreciated features. If you are interested in contributing, please send photos with a caption and your name to thedailybulldog@gmail.com.

  1. The colors of the sunrise are spectacular, Jennifer! Fauna close-ups are beautiful. Elizabeth, your camera captured such an amazing icy design!

  2. Pictures are a welcome part of my journey on the Bulldog. Thanks to you all and Mr. Bulldog for the pleasing experience. Feeding the deer becomes very rewarding beyond the knowing that you’re helping them. They are beautiful to watch and fun to photograph, BUT, in addition, along come the squirrels for a tidbit, then the turkeys want some too, and next the bobcats; not for the grain I SUSPECT, but for something warmer and more in a cat’s liking for lunch.

  3. Beautiful pictures, thank you all. My favorites are of the deer’s & the beautiful sunrise. So sorry of the poor bird in the picture, I’m thankful I don’t have that happen by my bird feeders.

  4. We are very fortunate for the wonderful photographs again this week. Jane K, you’re getting good mileage out of the bench in all seasons. Noticed the critter tracks. Dennis, did you snap the hawk with a long zoom?
